We review the theory and phenomenology of isosinglet vector-like quarks (VLQs). In recent
years, interest in VLQs has been increasing, due to their contributions to new physics effects …

Experimental and theoretical studies of CP violation in the B s 0 system are reviewed.
Updated predictions for the mixing parameters of the B s 0 mesons expected in the standard …

A bstract High-energy lepton colliders with a centre-of-mass energy in the multi-TeV range
are currently considered among the most challenging and far-reaching future accelerator …

The inspiration for this book came from François le Diberder. During his term as
spokesperson for B 八 B 八 R he laid down a vision for the two B Factory detector …

We obtain constraints on the mixing of vectorlike quarks coupling predominantly to the third
generation. We consider all (seven) relevant types of vectorlike quarks, individually. The …

For a long time, global fits of the electroweak sector of the standard model (SM) have been
used to exploit measurements of electroweak precision observables at lepton colliders (LEP …

A bstract A search is presented for pair production of heavy vector-like T and B quarks in
proton-proton collisions at\(\sqrt {s}= 13\) TeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated …

A bstract There are two tensions related to the Cabibbo angle of the CKM matrix. First, the
determinations of V us from K μ2, K ℓ3, and τ decays disagree at the 3σ level. Second, using …

Describing the fundamental theory of particle physics and its applications, this book provides
a detailed account of the Standard Model, focusing on techniques that can produce …

This new edition of The Standard Model and Beyond presents an advanced introduction to
the physics and formalism of the standard model and other non-abelian gauge theories. It …
